Comedian-actor Kapil Sharma, who landed in trouble for the controversial portrayal of nurses in his show "The Kapil Sharma Show", says the protesters might have had some misunderstanding and that the show doesn't have any intentions to hurt anyone.
When asked if characters dressed as nurses will still be a part of his show after the controversy, Kapil said, "Definitely, they will still be seen. I feel that some people might have had some misunderstanding, and it happens sometimes... They love us and watch the show, that's why they might have thought that way."
"We are a part of a show and just doing comedy with that character. And we don't have any intentions to hurt anyone purposely."

"if i joke with sidhu paaji, it doesn't mean that i'm joking with the whole sikh community. if i'm joking with sunil (grover), it doesn't mean i'm saying anything to the doctor community, i'm talking about that particular character."</div>
